The Kids Behind The Blog, May 2017

Today is another edition of one of my favorite monthly linkups, The Kids (or in my case, girls) Behind the Blog. Every month I giggle, nod, gasp, and lol my way through these posts. I love the sweet innocence of complete and brutal honesty that the kiddos so willingly dish out.

This month questions did not disappoint. But, when you ask a 6-year-old what their favorite childhood memory is you are bound to get a confused look and a silly answer.

1. If you had a magic tree-house that could take you anywhere in the world where would you go?

Marissa// Hmmm? To China so I could see Panda Bears. Emily// Disney World! *Said with no hesitation or even time for thought.* I asked her why and she exclaimed “Because Minnie lives there!!!” Mom Thoughts// Neither of these surprise me one bit.

2. Finish this sentence…red rover, red rover…

Marissa// send Emily right over! Emily// She looks at me confused and says… Nothing. Not that she said nothing, but she actually said the word nothing, 😆 ! Mom Thoughts// Oh Emily! I was pretty surprised that Marissa knew the answer. I guess I didn’t know that she had played this game before.

3. What is your best childhood memory?

Marissa// Going to Disney World (She was 3.5 at the time). Emily// When I dumped a bag of Cheetos on Marissa’s floor. (She would have been 1.5 so it seem pretty unlikely that she actually remembers this). Mom Thoughts// Still laughing over Emily’s answer. She just LOVES that story and the photo of her sitting there proudly. Needless to say I kept the pantry locked after this happened.

4. What is your favorite part about nature and being outside?

Marissa// I like looking for animal tracks out at our woods. Emily// I like finding animal tracks with you. Mom Thoughts// I can hardly wait to move to the woods.

5. What do you think Mommy would like for Mother’s Day?

Marissa// A trip to Disney World?! Emily// A bunch of hugs and kisses?! Mom Thoughts// Where both of these would be true, I’d settle for a day off from mom life.

Do parents get a summer break?
If you could change your name what would you change it to?How much do you grow in the summertime?Would you rather go to the beach or to Disney World?
What is your favorite kind of ice cream? Least favorite?

Mason said China as well! So fun! I had a strange suspicion that Emily might say Disney World!! 😉 Love their answers and their pretty faces! I cannot wait to see all of the adventures you all find at your new home in the woods.

Oh my goodness! I just adore those sweet girls of yours with their bright smiles and fantastic answers — especially the Disney related ones! 😉 lol. Love it!! 😀 Much love to you and that oh so precious fam of yours, Beth!

Your girls are so very cute! China must be on the brain, because my Anneliese has been talking about China non stop. How we can get there. The food we will eat while there. Not sure why China is the place, but it is.

Oh my goodness, that would be the best day ever. Me too friend. I just can’t wait until it really is! We’re getting closer all the time!
